THE VELVET UNDERGROUND: And So On

£39.00

There are approximately 47 Velvet Underground compilations floating around; And So On is one of those slightly mysterious grab-bags that turns up in the racks and quietly ruins your weekend plans.

Early demos, stray tracks, the sort of material that reminds you how fully formed they were before anyone was listening.

It’s less about polish and more about proximity to genius. Read in blueprint mode is still more compelling than most bands at full throttle. File under: essential, even when it sounds like it probably shouldn’t be.
